All's fair in Love and War

They each took a breath, watching each others stances. The fight would be quiet and hard, one of them would be fainted in a few moments. Houndoom watched his feet, Arcanine glanced at her face; she always gave her moves away with a certain expression.
He didn't want to fight dirty, so he came right out.
His tail glowed a silver color. "Iron Tail." He rushed her, dodging side to side. He avoided her Flame Thrower that she hurled at him.
She crossed her arms, and they met his tail as he whipped around. She struggled, and snarled, but was able to push him back.
He recovered, and whipped his right leg, catching the side of her head. She turned her head as he hit her, and caught his leg with her horn.
He hopped back, and she wiped her cheek.
"Faint Attack." She dissolved into the dust that was slowly rising with each of their movements.
He looked around, wary. Any movement might be her. The rustle behind a rock, the puff of dirt kicked up, the sound of her breathing; he heard it all, and saw it all.
She rose up behind him, and whispered, "Payback." Her fist glowed black, her eyes crazed with the fight, and hit him square in the back. He hadn't heard her, all that before was to get him jumpy.
"Crap." He muttered, and dodged away. He had taken the hit, and it pained him.
"Smoke Screen." He muttered, and hoped that it would keep her at bay for the moment so he could recover from the hit. The smoke and dust created an impenetrable haze around him. He wheezed, and gagged, 'crap, she got me good.' He grimaced, and used Sleep on himself. He would regain energy if only to be asleep for a moment, and he could use the move 'Sleep Talk.' His mind slipped out of his grasp as Sleep took effect. His body slumped, and his head rested on his chest. His tail limp.
"Shadow Ball." The ball of darkness ripped through the cloud, and hit him square in the chest. "Dang it! He's asleep." She hopped back, and ran behind a rock.
She knew better than to wake him when he fell asleep. She had down it once, and almost had her arm ripped off. When he's half asleep, he doesn't hold back. During the day, he holds most of his strength in, he refuses to hurt when unnecessary.
His body began to shake, and his ability Blaze came into effect. Now, even his fire moves would harm her like it would a normal Pokemon..
His fire pooled around him, and jumped with his heartbeat. She felt the need to run and hide, or run and never come back.
'Over Heat' Was super-heating the air, and made the rocks turn gold then white.
"Crap." She called out, "Dig!" And disappeared beneath the surface of the Earth. She knew it wouldn't protect her fully, but would save her life from fainting.
His body busted into flames, and he roared. He was awake, but couldn't stop himself from using the move.
"Dig!" She screamed over the crackle and hiss of the flames.
Bursting out of the earth below him, she connected with his jaw, and slugged with all her might.
Her hand was burned, but he was flat on the ground. She was in pain, but he was KO-ed.
"Medic." She giggled, then fainted herself.
Everyone clapped, they had fought honorably. Nurses came out and carried them to the hospital room. The Egg went with their stuff to the hospital room.
She woke up from her faint-induced sleep and her head was filled with fuzzies, the kind that don't go away for awhile. "Dang, get me outta here. I'm fine, just let me get out of the chemical smell!" She shook her head, and grabbed her bag. The smell was clogging everything in her mind, with no help from the fuzzies either.
She saw Arcanine was already up and had his stuff put together.
"Laters." He waved to the nurse, and they both jumped out of the window.
Both of them had grown up in that smell, it brought back bad memories. Memories of cages and needles, the endless needles. Memories of pain and suffering, memories that were better left alone.
She shivered at the thought of it. They made it to their plat in the mansion , and she instantly ran to her room. The Egg was put safely on the dresser, and she flopped onto her bed. Curling up into a ball, her mind started to unravel. She whimpered into her pillow, her tears flowed easily.
'Why, why am I weak? I shouldn't be crying because of a smell. I got rid of the weakness!' Her mind was a whirlwind of confusion, pain, and overall sadness. 'Why!' Her mind screamed at the world.
A bright light pierced her sadness; the Egg was hatching.
She sat up, and clutched a pillow to her body. Getting up, she moved closer. It peeped at her, and shook even harder; it wanted to met the one who had cared for it for only a short amount of time.
"Well dang, there goes my plan of throwing you out." She smiled and sat on the bed with it.
The light grew until it filled the room, and the Egg cracked open.
A little girl sat in her lap now, a gorgeous little girl. She was perfect in every sense. A rounded face, with huge pink eyes blinking at the sudden light. Light pink hair that was tied into a small side-pony. The side-pony was tied back with two little green leaves with a small, round, pink, almost berry like, bead. Her outfit was a basic jumpsuit. It was sleeveless, and puffy around her legs. It was tied around the knees too. The entire outfit was light pink.
"Hi!" She giggled, and wrapped her frail arms around the woman she now saw as her mother figure.
"Hey there." Her world was spinning, now what?
Sup there people? I know your out there reading, and not reviewing. It's making me pissed. (Grins with a sharp knife in hand) I might be putting this on Hiatus for the moment, I will not update until I get some feedback from you all out there. At lest 5 people, that is all I'm asking. Also, do not think that some one else will do it for you. Sorry to those who love it and want more, but I'm sick of getting only a small amount of reviews from a story I grovel over. I'm done ranting, hope you review, and no flames. I know I may deserve them, but you don't have to roast me about it. Though a Flamer did slap me around a bit, but I needed it.

Over and out
Oh, I fixed up most of it, and I hope it is better.
